A Surprise for Jocy

My Mom turns 65 in May. We had a surprise early birthday party for her. unbeknownst to Mom, my brother Billy came from DC, and my sister Samantha from Connecticut. 30 of her close friends joined us to celebrate her life.

In this photo, she just had just walked into the apartment and fell into her Billy's arms with Samantha standing on the right.

Jocy seems to be a total state of shock! No wonder Billy had to hold your mum up. Its really great that you've captured this moment. We rarely photograph such instances. Hope you all enjoyed your evening.
